Strange single beep noise at random intervals

[silpholion]

Since 19/4/2024 around 9:30am, there are intermittent, mechanical and slightly high pitched 'beep' sounds from my phone. It is one single beep, and it can happen once or sometimes twice in a row.

I have disabled NFC, turned off scanning of nearby devices, updated my phone software and even switched off my phone the whole night (20/4/2024) but the beeping sound still persists even when I switch on the phone again. Restarting did not help either. Here's a recording - try listening for a very short beep sound at 4 seconds (quite faint when recorded, you might have to crank up the volume).

I am not sure what's happening but the frequency is driving me nuts. It is still happening at intervals. I've lodged a report via the Members app but in the meantime, if anyone has faced this issue and found a workaround or what's causing it, I would really appreciate your input and help!

There goes the screeching sound again and no I do not have any credit cards or any other cards on the back of my phone. I even got a new case for around the phone but for the last two weeks I didn't have a case around the phone it is the phone it might be the update but I hope they fix this soon I would call Samsung directly as I usually do and I made complaints about their updates recently and they said a lot of people are complaining. I do not trust taking the phone to one of these local Fix-It people even if Samsung recognizes them I would bring it to the Samsung store if you're in New York City in Manhattan in the I think  meat packing District or at least that's what it was called when I was younger.

No way am I doing a factory reset!! This had to be a problem when they did an update!
